(newbie here!)
Anyway, I think the only parallel that can be drawn between comic girl & Faye is that they both wear glasses and aren't skinny. Not to say either are obese, just that they've got a bit on them--which is fine! I suppose they're both brunettes as well, but they're different shades.
I do see a bit of a Marigold in there, though.
I didn't think her hair was really messy either, just that it was wavy or had some sort of curl to it.
And is it just me, or is Dora looking a lot older lately? Not as in "gurl is gonna be collecting social security soon," just more like someone approaching their 30's. She's been wearing skirts/dresses and her hair is much calmer now.
Carl-E:
But she doesn't; Mari's nose is aquiline, very strong, thid girl's nose is practically a ski jump (much like the noses in my family... oh, god). Mari's mouth is rather thin-lipped, this girl's lips are quite full.
Different glasses, and a different body type (nowhere near the boobage). Similar slouch, and frumpy brown hair, but that's about it.
Just because people want to ship Marty & Mari, and Marten has a passing interest in this girl (or is it an interest in her passing?), it doesn't make the resemblance to Marigold any stronger!

I just reaslised, you forgot Annette. :-)
Thought, to be honest, I'm impressed at how many you did remember.
WAYF:
Yeah, I wouldn't have remembered Luna at all if I hadn't been looking up that arc because I didn't know who Annette was :P
EDIT - It's like Jeph read my mind. I was JUST thinking about how he was dealing with Marten's lack of personal ambition in life, and hey presto, we get to see Marten's complete lack of personal ambition in life, exemplified to a tee. :lol:
EDIT 2 - Just for reference to the passage of time and the degree of art evolution, the last time Dora and Marten were talking as single people in Coffee of Doom, they looked like this. More than 1400 strips ago. That means that they've been romantically attached for just under 3/4 of Questionable Content's entire run.

Baby steps, Marten, baby steps.
